EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite plate showcases a meticulously rendered illustration of Rattus norvegicus, commonly known as the brown rat or Norwegian rat, from the collection of pencil sketches and watercolor drawings of British mammals created by Dr. Edward Adrian Wilson between 1890 and 1910. Dr. Wilson, a distinguished naturalist and explorer, meticulously captured the intricate details of this European mammal, which belongs to the Muridae family, subfamily Murinae, and order Muroidea. The brown rat is a ubiquitous and adaptable species, found throughout Europe and Asia, and is one of the most common rats in the world. This illustration highlights the rat's robust build, with its long, scaly tail, pointed snout, and beady eyes. The rat's fur is depicted in rich, earthy tones, reflecting its name and typical coloration. The illustration captures the brown rat in its daytime habitat, which is often in burrows or other underground shelters. These rodents are omnivores, feeding on a variety of foods, including fruits, vegetables, and insects. They are also known to be opportunistic feeders, scavenging for food in human habitats. Dr. Wilson's illustration is a testament to the naturalist's art of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, showcasing the beauty and intricacy of the natural world. The meticulous attention to detail and the use of watercolor and pencil techniques bring the brown rat to life, providing a window into the past and a reminder of the rich biodiversity of the European continent.
